Banana Fritters

Big, beautiful, & fluffy Banana Fritters! Crispy on the outside soft with bits of banana on the inside! YUMMY!

1 & 1/2 Cups Flour

1 & 3/4 Teaspoons Baking Powder

1/2 Teaspoon Salt

2 Tablespoons Heaping Sugar

1 Beaten Egg

1/2 Cup Milk +2 Tablespoons

1 Teaspoon Vanilla

1 Teaspoon Cinnamon (optional)

2 Bananas peeled & diced

Powdered Sugar to Coat

Shortening For Frying

Mix the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder & Cinnamon together very well! Beat the egg & mix it with the vanilla & milk, stir well! Now dump this into your dry & mix well, I just use a heavy spoon. Stir in your diced bananas & gently stir through the batter. Now heat up your skilled with enough shortening that makes about 2 inches deep once melted. Drop your fritter batter by heaping tablespoons, in the hot shortening, hot enough to sizzle but not smoke! I used medium high heat. Let fry until the fritters are puffed up & bubbly on the top. Flip & fry the other side! You want full puffy fritters with no wet heavy batter. The bananas should be the only wet part inside each fritter! As each fritter is done remove with slotted spoon or spatula & place on paper towels to dry. Pat the tops with paper towel too! Let cool then coat with powdered sugar! THESE ARE YUMMY! It makes about 8 large fritters!
